Prosecutors seek death penalty in Denver bar killings

Prosecutors are seeking the death penalty against the final man accused of killing five people at a Denver bar last fall.

They announced the decision Thursday at a hearing for 23-year-old Dexter Lewis. It's the first time Denver prosecutors have sought capital punishment in over a decade and comes amid a debate about the future of the death penalty in Colorado.

Lewis and two brothers also charged in the case were implicated by a federal informant who went with them to the bar. The brothers reached plea deals that will require them to testify against Lewis.
